The Sheriff's Secret Wife

Back of the Book

"As of 2:33 this morning we're hitched."

After a wild night in Vegas, Racy Dillon and Gage Steele had gone and done it. Now they were officially husband and wife. A fact Racy preferred to keep under wraps—at least until they could get the marriage annulled. Even if her new husband was the sexiest lawman this side of Nevada…

Gage had never forgotten the kiss he and Racy had shared back in high school. Apparently neither had she. If the Wyoming bartender wanted out, he wasn't going to stand in her way. Unless he could persuade the reluctant Racy that their impulsive marriage was their true destiny…

Christyne Butler's Bio

Thanks to an aunt's love of genealogy, Christyne discovered both Louisa May Alcott and Harriet Beecher Stowe were members of her extended family tree on her mother's side, so she firmly believes her love of writing has always been her destiny.

Her father served in the Air Force for twenty years which explains why she was born in Taipei, Taiwan, and why she spent her youth all over the world before settling in New Hampshire with her family to attend high school. She followed in her family's rich military history and joined the United States Navy where she fell in love with romance novels after someone remembered women were serving aboard seagoing vessels and sent a box full of paperback romances to her ship, the USS VULCAN AR-5.

She started pursuing her own writing career six years ago, selling her first ever 'finished' manuscript in 2006. She made her first sale to Silhouette Special Edition two years later! She writes contemporary romances full of life, love, a hint of laughter and perhaps a dash of danger, too. Christyne loves the challenge of the boy-meets-girl, boy-loses-girl, boy-gets-girl-back and the journey of joy and hardship two people go through. And there has to be a 'happily ever after' or she's just not satisfied.

When she's not writing, she can be found hunting for treasures at yard sales and antique fairs to add to her memorabilia collection of women who served in the military, watching classic romantic movies and the great movie musicals of the '40s and '50s and reading books by her favorite authors.

She lives in central Massachusetts with her family and works full time as an executive assistant at an energy technologies company. You can email her at chris@christynebutler.com or visit her Web site.
